MUSTANG POST: 2025 MAY ISSUE RELEASED!

As this is my last issue with The Mustang Post I feel as though I need to spend this letter reflecting on my time here. For almost a quarter of my life I have been writing for The Mustang Post, during that time I wrote 17 articles, published 15 eMagazines, and recorded two podcasts. Among everything I have published, one piece stands out as my favorite, Cooking Up Contention.

Cooking Up Contention was made by Roland, Chad, and me during the 23-24 school year. It was born out of our teachers’ annoyance with our petty squabbles, with him eventually telling us to “just record yourselves arguing.” Which is what we did. The three of us turned our dumb talks into a script, and we loved it because it was an expansion of something we had fun doing.

Ultimately, that podcast sums up why I enjoyed my time here so much, Mr. Lang, our teacher, made an environment where anything you love can be written about.

Thank you for reading and goodbye,
From Logan Jacobs

MUSTANG POST: 2025 MARCH ISSUE RELEASED!

Hello again!
The Mustang Post has returned with another issue, while not as packed or as thematic as our last issue it surely will still provide quality articles for you to enjoy!

One of those quality articles is another valorant article, it’s similar to an older article I produced after the LOCK//IN event in 2023 but focuses more on story telling as compared to presenting facts.

I don’t have any major announcements for the Post in this letter so I’d like to end this letter by thanking you for reading!

You can read the newest release of the Mustang Post here!

Thank you for reading and best wishes,
From Logan Jacobs and the entire Editor Team

MUSTANG POST: 2025 VALENTINES DAY ISSUE RELEASED!

Happy Valentines Day!

For the first time ever the Post is doing a themed holiday issue! In the past we’ve dabbled in seasonal themed articles but never to this degree! Expect a full bouquets worth of Valentines day articles.

Alongside that you can expect some local articles for FM area! Again, we’ve dabbled in this idea here and there throughout the years but this will (hopefully) become a new trend here at the Post.

Finally, I’d like to introduce you to our new articles. Most articles will now be classified under overarching genres like “Fashion Cents” (fashion related articles) or “Game Changers” (sports related articles).

You shouldn’t see a major change to the contents of articles being produced at the Post but more a shift away from the chaos previously featured.

You can read the new issue here!

Thank you for reading and best wishes,
From Logan Jacobs and the entire Editor Team

MUSTANG POST: 2024 DECEMBER ISSUE RELEASED!

Season’s greetings!!

As the winter’s cold months approach us, our journalists have been working hard to get their first articles of the new school year published.

As the first few months of school are concentrated on refining punctuation and grammar, we intend on beefing up our future issues as the year goes on.

While December is the most wonderful time of the year, it is also the busiest time of the year. So, with that in mind, thank you for taking the time to enjoy our newest set of articles, and a warm welcome to any new viewers, as your support allows us to continue releasing new issues in the future months.

SHS Football State Champ Reflection

By: Mack Beschorner

The lights shine in the dome, brighter than ever. The biggest game of my life: the state championship.

My teammates and I have worked so hard: summer practice, morning lifts, and all that have led to this moment.

I put on my helmet before the big game. That helmet feels and smells like six months of dedication, hard hits, and those perfect plays. It’s comforting knowing all I’ve done with this helmet makes it so this championship isn’t a surprise.

In the first quarter things looked grim for the Mustangs: Davies was ahead by one touchdown, but in the quarters to come the Mustangs were lights out. Sheyenne won 24-14 winning the second state championship in school history.

Mustangs go and receive there trophy and celebrate on the 50 yard line.

Winning the game was an powerful feeling because not everyone gets to this point. When we were awarded the trophy, the entire team grabbed what wed earned.  The locker room celebration was one to none.

SHS Sports Strive for Greatness

By: Abby Smith

During the 2023-2024 school year, the Mustangs saw great success as state champs in basketball and volleyball. This season is going to come with many successes and maybe some losses all while working toward a state title.

With the changes that come in all sports, Sheyenne will need to figure out what works best for their teams. There are many predictions that can be made about these seasons but only time will tell.

Last year SHS volleyball lost two seniors: Isabelle Albrecht and Mia Engel. While the inevitability of seniors leaving can be hard, losing just two was not as drastic as years past. With three new freshmen on the varsity roster, they will need to work with them and other young players to get them used to the chaotic atmosphere.

Shanley lost to the Mustangs during the EDC and state championship last year. With a target on their back, Sheyenne took on Shanley this season and lost 3-1. Every team will give everything they have to take the title away, but the Mustangs will continue to grow and improve their chemistry and take everything they learn to the state championship court.

SHS varsity football lost 16 seniors last year yet brought in many new starting players. To accomplish their goals the Mustangs want their seniors to step up and be good leaders. They want teammates who can hold the underclassmen accountable and show them that they play hard from start to finish.

Football has had a very strong start to their season but have had losses against the west. The team needs to understand that they are going to have to work through challenges, but if they can do that then a state title is right in reach.

Last year, girls basketball lost two seniors, Brynn Bishop and Brenna Dick. The Mustangs base their offense and defense around the current players’ strengths. Brenna Dick was a key player to the Mustangs offence so finding someone that will take her place is going to be a big change. Sheyenne wants to have confident players out on the court giving it their all and the girls team is full of players ready to step up and take that role.

One team that might stand in the way of that state title this year is Horace. Last year, the mustangs lost twice to Horace, so if they manage to grab the win against them this year, it will mean a lot to the team. Mustangs are hoping to give everything they got to win them a state title this year.

Boys basketball lost 6 seniors last year and star player Tommy Ahneman who was the majority of their starting lineup. With only one returning player, Sheyenne will have to make up an entirely new team. There are many ways they could go about their play style this year with a whole new team, it will be interesting and exciting to see how this season plays out.

Sullivan Ihry and other seniors will have to show underclassman what it takes to be on the Sheyenne Mustangs basketball team. If this team remains set on the idea of becoming state champs for the second year in a row and willing to work and put in as much effort to get to the point of winning, nothing can stand in their way.

MUSTANG POST: 2024 OCTOBER ISSUE RELEASED!

Welcome back! The Mustang Post has survived another year of the long harsh winter known as Summer. Now a new spring is blooming in the Fall, new articles, new students, and even more editing for myself.

Throughout this year we hope to have a steady flow of articles releasing periodically, unlike last year. We also hope to have a bigger focus on the release of individual articles instead of the eMagazine focused format that we went with last year.

Besides the changes mentioned above, no other sweeping changes have been made. Two thirds of our editorial team has departed over the long winter, but with that comes new editors joining the team.

Abby Smith will be joining as an Assistant Editor focusing on podcasts and sports. Addison McCrosky will also be joining as an Assistant Editor with a more general focus.
